Lady Wellingtonian enters the Mansion and looks around. She feels excited and is looking forward to the following night. Then she gets herself a glass of sparkling wine and walks over to the other guests. "I hope you are enjoying yourselves. Let's give a toast to the beginning of the wonderful Hallowfest!"

"Splendid" said The Horseman "I shall get to it at once!". And so he gathered up some of the fallen pumpkins and began to arrange them in a little row on the mantlepiece. With a lit candelabra on each end, the effect was quite a nice one.

"If anyone would care to stand on my shoulders than the hanging pumpkins should be very easy to attend to".

"Thank you" he bowed to Kit. "Essence of Pumpkin Patch I believe the cologne is called".

"Good evening Lady Wellingtonian" he cried. "Nice to see you, to see you nice!"

He whipped around as he heard the most almightly racket of shrieking and swearing and the next minute WHOOOMPH something heavy had landed on his head (if he had had one of course). "Mmmhhnnnelpmm" was all he could manage to cry when suddenly the weight was lifted and he saw The Wicked Witch had been the cause of the commotion (and his sore head-that-wasn't-there).

"I didn't quite mean for someone to literally stand on me, not like that anyway". He was distinctly ruffled.

The door fell down again. In it's place stood a rather shocked girl, her hand still reaching for the doorknob. The moonlight cast a silvery sheen on her pale skin and cropped orange hair. Her dark eyes were wide, her mouth hanging slightly open.

"I don't think the door was supposed to fall over like that," she said after blinking her eyes a few moments. "And are those...hoofprints?"

From behind her came a sudden hiss. A small black cat streaked into the mansion and made straight for the glowing pumpkins. She pounced on one then jumped back. When the pumpkin didn't pounce back, the cat hissed and swatted at it.

Saffron ran after her cat and quickly scooped it up in her arms. "No, Winter. Stop being such a gatito malo." The cat frowned--yes, it frowned, with a very human expression--and contented herself with lying her head on Saffron's arm.

The girl looked around and realized that she hadn't even said a proper hello to the other guests. "Hello! I'm Saffron Orange!"

The mansion door creaked open. A tall, slim figure walked in, wrapped in a black cloak. Golden blonde hair framed the pale face looking out from the hood; a leather black boot stepped onto the floorboards of the mansion, then the rest of the rather tall person stepped in. The door slammed quite aprupty shut. Bright blue eyes flickered around the room, and there was a dangerous pause. Then, the girl raised a hand and suddenly waved merrily.
"May I bid all of you a good evening," she cried. "I'm not too late, am I? Fabulous." The floorboards creaked even more as she walked down the hall, flexing her gloved hands with a terrifying crack.

"Welcome, welcome Saffron and Goldleaf! May your apples ever bob and your pumpkins be well lit! Try the [hic] punch. 'Tis very fortifying in the cold weather".

Kit gestured to the opening in the front. "It'd be less cold in here if the door properly functioned. And since you had the <i>confidence</i> to make the grand entrance that destroyed it, it'll be your job to put it back in place everytime it collapses when someone tries to open the door."

Goldleaf waved with a grin towards the Headless Horseman, quite undisturbed by the frightening fact that he had no head. "Punch! Happy guests! A swinging party, verily." She took a glass of punch and raised it with a flourish. Some of the punch spilled round the brims.
Then she waved at Kitoky. She took a sip of the punch, and suddenly went silent. There was a pause. She spluttered. "Hmm. Hmm." She went off into a series of coughs. When she finally found her voice again, all she said was, "yes, verily."

The Headless Horseman, being something of a wimpy character despite his appearance, had already decided it was best not to argue with Kit, so he hastily picked up the fallen door, produced from under his cloak an oil can, and began to check the hinge for stiffness, and upon opening and closing the door, decided it was fit for use and would not fall again.

"All present and correct ma'am" he said to Kit with a salute. Noticing the look he was being given, he hastily shouted to Goldleaf "yes, it is a bit..er... unusual when you first drink it... but.. er... let me help you" and he walked as quickly as he could towards her without making it obvious, he was in fact, running.

Kit nodded her satisfaction and made her way towards <b>The Wicked Witch</b>. "Y'don't suppose you can get that broom to work for a minute or so to hang up these pumpkins on the ceiling?"

Goldleaf waved her punch glass high in the air as the Headless Horseman started running at top speed towards her. "It's not quite the kind of beverage I'm used to, but I'm sure it will do... It's not Gondorian ale, but it has a... it has this... it's liquid," she finally said. She chugged down more rum then waggled her begloved fingers. "Mmmffffrrrssshhhkkkfff," she said, her throat burning.

Tar-Samara looked down at her invitation, and then up at the giant mansion looming in front of her.

"I approve. Wonderful."

She climbed the stairs, murmuring her approval at the realistic hoof marks on the staircase and on the door. Tar opened the door, disappointed when it opened easily with no creaks and/or squeaks.

"That door should really squeak, Kit dear." She said, in lieu of greeting. "Oh, wow. These decorations are perfect! This is just like House on Haunted Hill, which was a completely underrated movie. There was actually a cameo by James Marsters at the beginning. He was a camera man." She said quickly, walking further into the room.

"Ahh, the Headless Horseman! Sleepy Hollow was such a great movie. I hope you don't plan on murdering us hopeless townspeople," she took the Horseman's hand with a smile, "I don't know if you noticed this, but when the Horseman throws the spear through the glass of the church, a few moments later the glass was fixed! Simply amazing."

"And the Wicked Witch! Wizard of Oz. A classic, of course. And for such a popular movie, it was followed by a lot of bad luck. Two, if not three people killed themselves on that set. There's actually a moment where in the original version you can see the flash of the gun from the director shooting himself in the head." She nodded enthusiastically.

It was at this point that Tar became aware that she was talking entirely too much, and she clamped her mouth shut with an audible click.

Nurrantiel waved to the new guests absently, still scribbling away in her notebook. All of the new information was coming so quickly! It was hard to take it all in. A new draft ruffled her pages, and she shivered again. It was getting colder. Moving over to the punch, Nurr swallowed some and smiled as it warmed her throat.

Still one hand clutching her notebook, she began picking up pumpkins near her feet and decorating the shelves.

"Yes, my second-cousin-twice-removed-on-my-mother's-auntie's-great-uncle's-side did nothing for our family image in that film" said The Horseman to Tar with a deep sigh.

He was feeling depressed again. He kicked a pumpkin absent-mindly which hit the cat. "Bother and fiddlesticks" he said.

Kit held an armful of pumpkins, "Well.. just... be careful. If worse comes to worse, we can always use the Horseman's shoulders."

She walked around and idly chatted with the guests until Tar-Samara came in and ratted on a list of movie trivia. Kit really didn't know what to do other than stare.

And so that's what she did.

"...... Um... punch? Or are you going to mention in Charlie and the Chocolate factory there were rivers and ponds of chocolate and sweetened drinks?"

Kit pondered, "... a river of wine.... hmmmm."

"I disagree dear! I found him quite terrifying." Tar said to the Horseman. "However, he might have picked a movie that was more of a horror than a comedy. But who would turn down a chance at a movie with Johnny Depp? Speaking of Johnny Depp and thrillers, Secret Window was amazing, but I may be biased because I love Stephen King." Tar gushed, and then turned back to Kitoky.

"You know, I found Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was way more accurate than the original Gene Wilder version, and yet I still found more entertainment from the original. However, it was an upside that Johnny Depp and Christopher Lee were in the remake however. Hmm, what was I saying? Oh! Punch. I would like some. And should have some, as I am talking entirely too much!"

"I concur" piped up The Horseman. "Much more accurate..... and much more entertaining" he added quietly.
